Western Togoland separatists have ordered the country’s security services within their boundaries to leave within 24 hours.
In a statement, the group further ordered the security services to leave their weapons and ammunitions behind.
Under the leadership of Togbe Yesu Kwabla Edudzi II, the group blocked all roads leading to and from the Volta Region and warned the roadblocks will remain on the roads until “Ghana agrees to come to the negotiation table, with expected UNO facilitation.”
“All political activities within the new State are banned with immediate effect. Certain Radio stations are temporarily designated Western Togoland (WTL) State Radios till further notice, and all Media Houses within WTL are to focus their programming predominantly on WTL issues until further notice,” the statement added.
They allegedly took over the Aveyime and Mepe Police stations, overpowering the police officers in the process and looting the Station’s armoury.
